‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Cast Includes ‘X-Men’ OGs Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, James Marsden, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn, Kelsey Grammer; Gambit Channing Tatum & More Set As Cameras Roll
The biggest news is that the announcement made it certain that stars from 20th Century Fox/Marvel’s X-Men part of the franchise are coming back, read Patrick Stewart aka Charles Xavier (didn’t he die in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness?), Ian McKellen aka Magneto, Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler, Rebecca Romijn as Mystique, James Marsden aka Cyclops and Kelsey Grammer as Beast from the Fox Marvel movies. Oh, and Gambit himself, meaning Channing Tatum, also is in for the fun. We saw him last in Deadpool & Wolverine.
These names today are just confirmations. We’ve known for a while that the whole MCU gang and those new to Marvel — i.e. The Fantastic Four: First Steps foursome of Pedro Pascal (Reed Richards), Vanessa Kirby (Sue Storm), Joseph Quinn (Johnny Storm) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben Grimm/Thing) — are boarding the big Avengers movie, which is rolling cameras in London.
Among those confirmed this morning are Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Captain America, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Letitia Wright as Shuri, Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, Wyatt Russell as John Walker, Tenoch Huerta Mejia as Namor, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Simu Liu as Shang-Chi, Kelsey Grammer, Florence Pugh, Lewis Pullman, Danny Ramirez, David Harbour, Winston Duke and the list keeps going.
Avengers: Doomsday happens in theaters on May 1, 2026.
